Starry Birthday

Hello everyone.. hope your week started off well. Today I have yet another birthday card that I’d like to share with you. As you know I love the look of blended distress ink and use the technique quite often. To start the card I die-cut an accent background. I tried to get a piece that would blend nicely with the colors I picked to make the card front. I die-cut a smaller rectangle to use as the card front and then taped it to some scrap paper that was already taped to my workstation. When I taped the card front down I used the stitched lines as a guideline for where to place the tape so I would have a white border around the card front. The next step is my favorite, I blended the distress ink starting with the lighter color at the top and worked my way down to the darker color at the bottom. I allowed it time to dry and then I added some bling to it. Hope you enjoyed your visit today. Happy crafting!
